A Phase III Study to Evaluate the Effect of Balcinrenone/Dapagliflozin in Patients With CKD Stage 3b and 4 (BalanceD-CKD)

2800 patients around the world

Available in Argentina

This is a Phase III, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, active-controlled, event-driven study in participants with CKD Stage 3b and 4. The purpose of this study is to determine if balcinrenone/dapagliflozin, compared with dapagliflozin, administered as a capsule once daily on a background of standard of care (SoC) therapy, reduces the risk of CV death, death from kidney failure, kidney failure, sustained ≥ 50% decline from baseline in eGFR, and HF events in adults with CKD Stage 3b and 4. The study will also assess safety and tolerability of balcinrenone/dapagliflozin. Eligible patients will randomly be assigned with a 1:1 ratio to receive once daily administration of one capsule and one tablet of one of the following treatments: 1. Balcinrenone/dapagliflozin 15 mg/10 mg capsule and matching placebo for dapagliflozin 10 mg tablet 2. Dapagliflozin 10 mg tablet and matching placebo for balcinrenone/dapagliflozin capsule The study will be conducted at approximately 550 sites in approximately 30 countries, globally.
